Pehistica

Pehistica

Lenka Prochazkova

Prague. A time of denial of intellectual rights and freedoms. The time of "flight to the west" or hiding in the homeland.

Pavla is a young writer, but by necessity she is also a housekeeper in the theater. Jozef is an older writer, married, but has been living in a parallel love relationship with Pavlo for several years. Lucka is their little girl. However, another child is on the way, and from this situation a crisis of the couple is born... The contemporary Czech writer built this novel on a note from her own past, a crisis period in her long-term relationship with the writer Ludvik Vaculik (who as a counter-response he wrote the novel "Kako se prave muška dječa"), in which he talks in a witty and ironic way not about his own intimate drama, but also about the socio-political moment of the then communist Czech Republic (Oslovakia).

Fjodor Mihajlovič Dostojevski

The novel "The Gambler" (1866) occupies an exceptional place in Dostoevsky's work. Although the idea for this novel supposedly matured for a full three years, Dostoevsky dictated it almost in his breath, in just twenty-seven days.
